What are you watching?

I think I'll watch Andor in the near future. Not watching anything since Severance finished. Not a TV show but my favourite Disney era Star Wars media is easily the Jedi games. Mando season 1 was great. Season 2 felt like 8 episodes advertising spin off shows so I never bothered with season 3.

I definetely agree with you about Mando S1 and S2, but honestly S3 sort of won me back, it took the show back to what made me like S1, but the season still got it's detractors so it's hard to tell if you'd like it

I watched The Acolyte as it released as my brother was bed bound after an operation and it was a reason to call him up once a week to chat about it while I was working away in Bristol. The show had its issues but I enjoyed how removed it was from the rest of what Star Wars has been churning out lately. It felt a bit different. Disney Star Wars has lost any good faith it had left with me by cancelling it after one season with a cliffhanger ending. As if their 36 other projects in the IP don’t make them enough money to prop up one final season to wrap it up for people? It’s one thing when Netflix do it as their projects are all unrelated. But I don’t want to get invested in Star Wars stories if Disney will just pull the rug from under my feet at the first sign of a southern trend in viewership. Was cool to see Carrie-Anne Moss do some martial arts again for a bit at least.

I didn't mind The Acolyte, it had some neato ideas but overall I found it kind of boring, the episode where they fight the sith guy slapped though. It definitely was nice to get something in a different time period, I hope Lucasfilm don't learn the wrong lesson from the criticism and make everything else set in the Original Trilogy era
